SINGAPORE ARTS MUSEUM:

Overview:Housed in the former Saint Joseph's Institution, the Singapore Art Museum (SAM) was officially opened in 20 January 1996.
The museum aims to preserve and present the contemporary art and art histories of Singapore and Southeast Asia. SAM is home to the world's largest public collection of modern and contemporary Southeast Asian artworks.
